“We just want the protesters to acknowledge that they do have an impact on the businesses that they’re protesting in front of, and further down the street and down the main street as well,” Allard said. He added he’s spoken directly to protesters to suggest they move to the bridges. “, they’d have just as much exposure from vehicular traffic without impacting the business community … If the protesters want to be good stewards in the neighbourhood, which they’ve said they are being, then they should recognize it has a bad and negative impact on businesses.”
Protesting must be lucrative business nowadays.
